Hazardous Webinar: Students in fire research showcase

Celebrate new research faces and topics in the fire landscape with Students in fire science showcase.

Hear the latest PhD research on bushfire smoke and eye health, remote sensing and machine learning to predict forest fire spread, and collaborative and adaptive fire risk-reduction.

Speakers:

• Suki Jaiswal, University of New South Wales and Natural Hazards Research Australia Postgraduate Scholar
• Harikesh, University of the Sunshine Coast and Natural Hazards Research Australia Associate Student
• Douglas Radford, University of Adelaide and Natural Hazards Research Australia Associate Student
• Dr Rowena Morris, Node Research Manager, Natural Hazards Research Australia (host)

Suki, Harikesh and Douglas share their PhD projects adding to the breadth of information supporting the response, recovery and resilience to natural hazards.

• The impact of bushfire smoke on the ocular surface
• An empirical and dynamic tool for the prediction of forest fire spread using remote sensing and machine learning techniques
• An integrated modelling approach for the planning of collaborative and adaptive wildfire risk-reduction activities
